THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) can stay in a person's body for as long as 3 to 90 days after smoking or being ingested orally.
There are numerous determining factors for how long drug toxins stay in a persons body which vary from person to person, such as the analytical
method used, your health, your body weight, metabolism, fluid intake, the type of drug toxin, and the degree of exposure to the drug toxin.

Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, one of nearly 400 chemicals in a cannabis plant, accounts for most of marijuana's psychoactive, or mind-altering, effects. The strength of the drug is determined by the amount of THC it contains which varies from plant to plant. Marijuana stays in your system for different amounts of time depending on how often you smoke it, how much you smoke, and the makeup of the individual (weight/height/etc.).

If you smoke it occasionally it will remain in your system for up to 10 days. If you smoke marijuana on a regular basis it will stay in your system for as long as 45 days, and if you smoke marijuana at a constant pace, it can stay in the body for 90 days, Marijuana is fat soluble. It stores in the fat cells of the body, the brain, the liver, the kidneys, in other words the major organs.

Delta-9-THC enters the bloodstream rapidly after smoking (in minutes) or more slowly when ingested orally (20 minutes to 1.5 hours). It is rapidly metabolized into inert molecules known as metabolites. These chemicals also have the word Tetrahydrocannabinol in them and are called THC, which can be quite confusing.

Delta-9-THC is detectable in the blood for a few hours, but none of this active chemical is found in the urine or stored in the fatty tissues such as the liver and brain.

What is frequently described as THC's lingering in the body fluids and organs are metabolites of Delta-9-THC, the inert substances that the body disposes of in the urine and excrement, in much the same way as it disposes with Vitamin A. It is these that are detected in the body organs and urine, long after the effects of Delta-9-THC have worn off. These metabolites can linger more than 90 days in some cases. For occasional users, an average of 13 days was recorded. Some people had metabolites detectable for just three days; others found the substances still in the urine after up to 30 days

Congratulations dude I am happy for you my boyfriend has been smoking since he was 11 he just turned 42 on sunday and he quit about two months ago to. I think that it would be safe to say that it is out of your system by now. Usually only takes about 30 days for the THC to get out. However, if you were to have a hair test done it would still show up (sorry) but other than that consider yourself clean!!!!!

I don't care if you used to smoke 300 times a day, after 45 days of not smoking, you're clean. :)

This, of course, if you are taking a urine-based test.
A hair-based test will show the weed for the next 10 years.
Most people, however, do a urine test; it is quicker and cheaper.

Just to be sure you can flush your system with lots of water. I mean a coulpe gallons a day, but dont drown your self there is such a thing as water poisoning. I've seen a guy went from smoking everyday to clean drug test in 3 days, but he was really serious about it.

yeah, I think THC stays in your system for 1 month despite 4 yrs of chronic weed smoking. Even less time if you eat and drink right. Bottom line, you're all good.

You may be able to pee clean but if you had a hair and follicle test done there would still be traces of it.

Weed isnt like other drugs i.e. ecstacy where it stays in the spinal column.

I think you are fine

Hey whats up your issue sounds familiar i used to be just like that. Altough if you smoked everyday for years, more than liked your system is not clean. But try drinking lots of water and pickle juice (even though it sounds gross). Good Luck

yes you are totally clean in your urine and blood after 1 month tops. but a hair folecule test could still reveal it. and there is nothing you can do to hide that. i wouldn't worry about a hair folecule test though unless you are a federal inmate or somone died at your hands as a result of drug use.

Depends on your weight(THC is stored in fat so fatter people require longer time to clear a drug test), but I'd imagine 3-4 days you should be clear for drug tests, if you just smoke 1 joint.

Physically yes, it takes about 28 days to leave the body, it can still be in your hair up until that point. Other than that your only clean as long as you stay away from it consistantly
